Prayers,How many Stories?
ALL RIGHT!! The first Chicago highrise fire brought about the birth of how SERIES it was.
At least 34, people were able to get down the stairs from Floor 34, sooty and smoke-eaten...
Sounds like everyone got out OK as far as the reporters know at this time.
Perimeter being set up by CFD about two blocks around this structure.
Flames are now starting to come OUT the windows...
The number of people seen coming out of the building was only about a half dozen...business day over pretty much...
45 stories I think I heard it was on the 29th floor
45 floors in the building.
Built in 1935, no sprinklers.
We had fire drills last week, undoubtedly that saved lives.
I worked on the 30th floor in that building until a few months ago when I was moved to the new facility across the loop. Know alot of good people on that floor. Hope they all made it out ok.
Our Trust Department, some Wealth Management and the bank's Chief Economist were all housed on that floor.
